Chapter 197 Unbelievable
Chapter 197 Unbelievable
Qin Zheng left the bedroom feeling very unhappy.
After going through so much trouble to rescue the emperor, only to be suspected, no one would be happy!
This eunuch deserves a beating!
The eunuch is indeed a psychopath, full of evil intentions and too suspicious!
Qin Zheng decided to find an opportunity to beat up this old eunuch.
Suddenly, Xu Pengling and others came towards them carrying Qu Zhengzhuo.
Qin Zheng met Qu Zhengzhuo's gaze.
Neither of them spoke.
"Lord Qin!" Xu Pengling saluted with his fists clasped.
He now has great respect for Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng nodded and said nothing.
Outside the palace, Tao Yong and others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Qin Zheng coming out.
Everyone went home.
At this moment, Xia Bitu was pacing in his study.
Xia Jinzhong stood aside, not daring to say a word, knowing that his adoptive father had encountered a big problem and was thinking.
A masked old man in black was also there, standing with his hands hanging down.
"Black Cavalry? As expected, Qin Zheng has another trump card besides the special forces." Suddenly, Xia Bitu said, "Did you see with your own eyes the Black Cavalry's attack, sweeping away everything in its path?"
Xia Jinzhong was still frightened at this moment, and nodded and said, "It's ridiculously strong. His special forces are already strong enough, but I didn't expect there are even stronger ones!"
The old man in black also said, "They are quite powerful and elusive. They can fight one against a thousand. Their fighting skills include both military skills and many unique ones. Looking at our Daqian army, they are unmatched!"
Xia Bitu was shocked: "So strong?"
The old man's face was covered, so his expression could not be seen, but his tone was solemn and serious: "The Imperial Guards had 100,000 soldiers, but they killed less than 100,000 enemies. The remaining nearly 200,000 rebels were all wiped out by these 9,000 men. They are more than strong!"
"Nine thousand? They only have nine thousand people?" Xia Bitu exclaimed in disbelief.
The old man's tone was filled with fear: "I think the fighting power of these nine thousand black cavalry is enough to wipe out a small country!"
"How is this possible?" Xia Bitu was even more shocked.
The old man hesitated for a moment and said, "They have a strong murderous aura, as if they have been on the battlefield for a long time."
Xia Bitu was stunned. "Battle-hardened? There hasn't been a large-scale battle in Hongtong County?"
The old man continued, "I see that the weapons they use must weigh over a hundred pounds!"
"Over a hundred kilograms?" Xia Bitu was even more incredulous. "How is that possible? The heaviest weapons carried by soldiers in the army are no more than fifty kilograms. How can they function normally if they are heavier?"
Suddenly, Xia Bitu's expression changed drastically, and he stared at the old man intently: "Like you, a martial artist?"
The old man nodded, then shook his head: "It feels like it, but I can't really tell. Unless..."
Xia Bitu's expression changed again: "Unless, he is stronger than you in force?"
The old man nodded.
Tick tock!
A drop of sweat slid down Xia Bitu's old face and fell to the ground.
Xia Jinzhong looked at his adoptive father in shock. This was the first time his adoptive father had been scared into a cold sweat.
In fact, even at this moment, when he recalled the scene at that time, he was still terrified, scared out of his wits, and filled with fear.
"Nine thousand warriors, how is that possible?" Xia Bitu had already said it was impossible several times.
"How many people in Daqian practice martial arts? There are even fewer who can catch up with you!" Xia Bitu couldn't believe it.
Musha?
Xia Jinzhong was dumbfounded at this moment.
He knew how powerful this old man's martial arts skills were. He could easily jump over houses and break stone tablets with one hand.
If there were nine thousand masters who were better than this old man, they could indeed wipe out a small country.
Suddenly, the old man said, "Sir, do you remember that when the Dazhen Dynasty was overthrown, religion was also involved!"
Xia Bitu's expression changed drastically. He understood what the old man meant and thought of a sect with tremendous fighting power: "Five Elements Sect?"
“Black clothes, black riders…” Xia Bitu’s face turned pale.
Upon hearing this ancient name, Xia Jinzhong immediately broke out in a sweat.
The old man who made the guess was also sweating at this moment.
The Five Elements Sect, a hidden religious sect, is based on martial arts and has unparalleled combat power.
The Five Elements Sect has four major halls: gold, wood, water, fire and earth.
Believers are distinguished by yellow, green, white, red and black clothes.
Originally, the Five Elements Sect only existed in ancient legends.
Legend has it that they are the protectors of this world.
However, during the destruction of Dazhen, Daqian was unable to capture the city after a long siege, suffered heavy casualties, and was on the verge of defeat.
The three major branches of the Five Elements Sect of water, fire and earth suddenly took action and laid the foundation for Daqian's victory with their overwhelming force.
However, the Five Elements Sect disappeared again from then on.
It was also at that time that the Five Elements Sect was no longer a legend.
It also made the founding emperor of Daqian more legitimate.
For many years, there have been no outside invasions.
However, everyone can see that the Five Elements Sect is not protecting Daqian, but is also dissatisfied with the incompetence and tyranny of Emperor Dazhen.
In those days, successive emperors of Daqian searched everywhere for the Five Elements Sect, but to no avail.
Now, it has been so long that people have forgotten.
At this moment, Xia Jinzhong looked as pale as death. He had forgotten that the Five Elements Sect had participated in the destruction of Dazhen.
Even the Five Elements Sect is not optimistic about Dazhen. Can he still restore his country?
"Impossible!" Xia Bitu shook his head, his face covered in cold sweat.
Xia Bitu didn't believe it, because it was unbelievable.
"Why should the Five Elements Sect help Qin Zheng? Why should they obey his orders?" Xia Bitu growled.
He was severely shocked!
Xia Jinzhong's voice trembled as he speculated, "Foster father, could Qin Zheng be a member of the Five Elements Sect?"
Xia Bitu shook his head vigorously: "Are you kidding? Qin Zheng doesn't know any martial arts at all. How can someone from the Five Elements Sect not know martial arts? He can mobilize the black clothes, so he must be a young master at least! Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Even if you kill Xia Bitu, he won’t believe it.
Xia Jinzhong looked at the old man and asked, "Could it be that Qin Zheng is pretending not to know martial arts?"
The old man nodded: "Qin Zheng really doesn't know martial arts."
Xia Jinzhong was a little anxious: "Foster father, do you want to check?"
Xia Bitu looked at the old man.
The old man shook his head: "I can't check, and I dare not check!"
After saying that, he seemed to want to say something else, but stopped himself.
Xia Bitu looked at the old man and knew that there were some things he couldn't say because Xia Jinzhong was here.
"The master is back!" Suddenly, Su Xiaoman's exclamation came from the next yard outside.
Xia Bitu was about to go out, but stopped again.
After sitting on the armchair for a long time, he looked at Xia Jinzhong and said, "Do you know how terrifying Qin Zheng is? Do you still want to assassinate him?"
Xia Jinzhong lowered his head and said, "Qin Zheng is not someone I can fight against. There is no point in assassinating him. With his ability and strength, he could have wiped out the Fuzhen Sect and killed me long ago!
He really has no interest in targeting the Fu Zhen Church and doesn't bother to kill me. So why should I force him to kill me?"
Xia Bitu nodded with satisfaction: "You finally figured it out, very good!"
Xia Jinzhong smiled bitterly, his eyes red. "It's too late to figure it out now. The Fuzhen Sect is gone, and there's really no hope of restoring the country!"
"Foster father, if the Fuzhen Sect is gone, I will have no face to live in this world. Please let me go!" Xia Jinzhong was extremely depressed at this moment, and there was no light in his eyes.
The trump card Qin Zheng showed this time completely shattered his already fragile heart!
Xia Bitu looked at Xia Jinzhong, sighed, and said slowly: "I promised your mother to help you restore your country. Although it is hopeless for the Fuzhen Sect to restore its country, how can I let the Fuzhen Sect be completely destroyed?"
Xia Jinzhong's body trembled and he looked at his adoptive father in astonishment.
